My First Book of Soccer

Reach for this book when your toddler is showing their first sparks of interest in group play, or when they have been watching older siblings run across the soccer field from the sidelines. It is the perfect tool for helping a young child transition from being a spectator to understanding the basic flow and vocabulary of a real game. By using actual photographs rather than illustrations, it grounds the experience in reality, making the world of sports feel accessible and exciting. The book focuses on the joy of movement, the thrill of a goal, and the cooperative nature of being on a team. It validates a child's desire to be a big kid by explaining the rules in a way that respects their intelligence while remaining developmentally appropriate for the one to four age range. Parents will appreciate how it builds confidence and curiosity about starting a new physical activity, turning the big, loud soccer field into a friendly and familiar place.
